So following the instructions. I am able to build everything but when I go to run it I am getting two errors. (I will also attach a screenshot) (ERROR) render/wlr_renderer.c:423 Could not initialize rednerer I initially tried in a Debian 12 VM and thought that may cause issues but I could run KDE on Wayland without issue. Then I tried on an old Thinkpad T410 on XFCE in X11 and I get the same error. Any recommendations? Thanks.

With #76, I refined the documentation on running Technically, @tstraus13 -- #76 also has some debugging options. Basically to recommendations: What you're seeing is from wlroots; so (1) verify if this also happens for other wlroots compositors (eg. If that doesn't help => please share a full dump of your configure & compile log (including dependencies) to see if or what is missing. |

Given this issue was scoped to "Add documentation", which is done with #74 , #75 and #76 => closing the issue here. @tstraus13 => following above suggestion: If it keeps not working, please create a new issue with title "Fails to start with 'Could not initialize renderer'" or similar. Thanks! |
